Introduction Market Data Compact

Sovereign Bancorp is the third largest bank in the state of Pennsylvania. It is based in Wyomissing and has recently been aquiring banks in PA and NJ. It is a " large full service bank with a small community touch". SVRN has a web presence at www.sovereigbbank.com. Investor Relations can be reached at 1-800-320-8498. Sovereign pays a small dividend. Shareholders can add to their holdings though the bank's DRIP Program. Each year stockholders are rewarded with a distribution of at least 10% to upwards of 6 for 5 stock splits. As the 1997 prospectus states , Sovereign is a growth company delivering a 36% average annual increase in stock price over the last twelve years. Also as the consolidation and merger activity continues in the banking industry Sovereign is always a target for a takeover. But even if that never happens the bank is expanding and is a very well run operation. Jay S. Sidhu, President and CEO looks out for the well being of the shareholders.
